It's a real shame Bush and Cheney screwed up so spectacularly, and ignored the law so systematically, that it's interfering with Obama's desire to govern. But Obama signed up for this gig.
"Winning the popular vote" doesn't mean what most people think it does, and the conclusions that people draw from this bogus metric are myths.
Under McCain's version of Pinata Politics, the senator and his team swing wildly in every direction, hoping to hit Barack Obama. There's no real consistency to the attacks.
By repeatedly asking "Who is the real Barack Obama?" McCain/Palin is hinting that he has a hidden agenda -- an agenda that threatens all of us. By making Obama the Other, they are fueling racial paranoia.

The GOP keeps experimenting with new memes to define Obama, but not only are they not sticking, some even contradict each other.
